Celebrating Volunteers’ Week 2025

By Andrea Rannard-Lambert, Programme Director, ELBA

Volunteers’ Week 2025, taking place from 2 to 8 June, is the annual UK-wide campaign recognising the contributions of volunteers.

ELBA is proud to participate in this nationwide event, which was established in 1984. And, as we celebrate Volunteers’ Week 2025, ELBA extends heartfelt thanks to all the volunteers we work with. Through your dedication and service, your contributions not only enrich the lives of people in east London, but also inspire a culture of giving and community engagement.

ELBA, in partnership with our community, corporate and education partners, is delivering a range of activities this week – plastic fishing, volunteer fairs, Career Insight Visits, mock interviews, digital skills sessions – that will give many their first experience of volunteering, whilst providing opportunities for those individuals with the volunteering bug!

Every activity will create memories and moments for those involved. Enjoy our Hot Opps this Volunteers’ Week, which we hope will inspire you into action.
